What is the restriction on luggage for this tour?

32/20 Inches would normally be the restriction but since this tour has only a max of 13 guests, slightly bigger is ok as well.

15 seat van... do you sit in the same seat or does the driver, hopefully, make passengers change seats? And, if so, how often is seating rotated?

It depends actually a little on the group and the guide, we do not have a formal procedure in place for this. But we have guides who do this but also we get people who love having their own seat, but its 100% something that I can mention to your guide on tour and am sure he or she is willing to suggest this on your trip.

Are the sights included (or can be included): valley of Boyne, Uisneach?

Although we do not have visits to the Valley of Boyne or Uaisneach currently on the itinerary, there are many other sights along the way including The Giants Causeway, the Ceide Fields neolithic site in Mayo, Irelands only fjord; Killary, a visit to the Aran Islands to see Dun Aonghasa which is a bronze age hillfort over 3000 years old sitting atop the spectacular cliffs on Inis Mor, The Cliffs of Moher, Dingle Peninsula and much more!

Are the kayaking conditions in Ireland different between early May and late May? Is it cold?

Kayaking could be brisk but you get a wetsuit, booties etc so you will be warm enough. Maybe is actually often really nice and it's not much different between the beginning and end of May.

I would like to know if you will have this tour in May 2025.

Our full Irish adventure is our newest tour that we are trying out on a trial run. We are only running this tour on a trial basis on two dates this year, the last of which is in September. Unfortunately I do not have a definite answer for you right now whether it will run or not.

What are the meeting and drop-off points for the tour?

What a great way to see Ireland! I have so many great things to say about this tour. First off, Overland is so responsive to questions before our tour. My husband and I booked the 11-day tour with 3 other couples and we had question after question before the tour began. No joke. Some of us were a little anxious about this trip! Reinier answered all of our questions promptly and patiently. He was so friendly and so reassuring that he had put all of us at ease. The tour itself was so amazing, and that might be an understatement. We saw Ireland in all her magnificence -- her raw ruggedness, her history and how she came to be, and her beautiful people. And I have to say, the person who made it all happen was our guide, Cathal. He was so accommodating and kept a watchful eye on all of us, making sure we were all having a great time. My husband & I cannot say enough good things about Cathal. He was thoughtful, had a great sense of humor, and was so warm and kind and made us feel at home in a new country. We could not have had a better guide! And lastly, we loved our small group! There were only 14 of us (plus Cathal), so we all got to know one another fairly well. I really do prefer small group tours, as opposed to larger group tours or even private tours. We visited a new country and made new friends. This was an unforgettable vacation, painted with memories of wonder and laughter.Show more

Thank you so much for this glowing review! We’re thrilled that your 11-Day Full Irish Adventure gave you a true taste of Ireland’s beauty and history. Cathal will be over the moon to hear how much you appreciated his warmth, humour, and care. It means so much to him. We’re also so glad your small group felt like new friends along the way. It was a joy to have you all with us, and we can’t wait to welcome you back for more unforgettable Irish memories!
